Hello, everyone. Welcome back.
Today we are doing the correct way, in
my opinion, correct order to apply makeup.
I'm doing a voiceover because it's so hot.
I can't film in that room and not have a
fan on and the fan's too loud for the microphones.
So we're going to start off with eye cream.
I've washed my face and used toner.
Eye cream is always my go to.
I use eye cream under eye makeup just
because it stops all the dryness and the patchiness.
Eyeshadow tends to go on a lot smoother.
Eye primer goes on a lot smoother as well.
You notice I'm really getting in on this corner.
I'm quite dehydrated in that area, so I wanted to
make sure I was really applying it, a good coating.
So if you have dry skin, good moisturizer.
If you have oily skin, a lightweight serum,
a Hyaluronic Acid serum is a good one.
By the way, if I spell anything
wrong in this list, please ignore it.
You'll notice I'm really pushing
this product into the skin.
I don't want anything sitting on top.
I want it to be all in my skin, become part of my skin.
And then optional, a hydrating mist.
If you feel you need that little bit of extra hydration.
You absolutely don't need to do this, I just like to.
Yeah. I'm going to dry my brows
because we're going into eyebrows next.
Just using a brow gel.
I've just had mine laminated, so I don't need to
use my extra stronghold soap or anything like that.
So do your brow gel, your brow pencil, pen,
whatever it is you're using, do that now.
Give your skincare, like, a chance to become
and do what it needs to do.
Now I'm going to blot away any excess skincare.
This is for everyone with dry skin, oily skin,
whatever skin type you have, any excess sitting on
top of the skin, just blot that away.
You don't want a barrier between
your skincare and your foundation.
Sorry, your skin and your foundation.
Primer, if you need it.
You don't always need primer.
I felt particularly, like, dehydrated on my cheeks, on my nose
this day and in between my brows, so I used a
primer just to give myself a little bit of something extra.
SPF, goes on now.
You need it.
No arguments.
Okay. Eye primer.
This goes on next.
I use a little bit on my lid, and then I gently
buff that out with my finger just so I get, like, the
main coverage on the eyelid where I'm oilier, and then I gently
kind of, like, take that up to the brow.
I am being gentle.
It doesn't look like I am, but I really am.
Yeah.
Tuck it into the inside. Then I sometimes take a
little bit just on the outside corner of my eye.
Eyeshadow is next, but just the
upper half of our eyeshadow.
We're going to use the bottom waterline to another time.
I'm going to start with the lighter colors first
that I'm using, wherever you're using them.
I'm doing... I don't know what I'm doing today, but I start with
the lighter color, then go in a little bit darker.
And then I'm just going to
carry this, almost like a wing,
outwards.
These eyeshadows, by the way,
from 3ina blend beautifully.
I absolutely love these.
And take your time with this, you don't
want too much falling onto your skin.
But what we will do if we have any fallout, we'll
take our primer, whatever the last skincare products we use on
a cotton pad or a sponge and just use that to
wipe away the excess eyeshadow that has fallen down.
I do the eyes first before
my foundation because of fallout.
It's so much easier to correct it with skincare
before your foundation, otherwise you end up taking everything
off or smudging the eyeshadow, doing whatever.
And I've edited this before I did the voiceover, so
I'm just trying to talk to fill up time.
But yeah, really, really just making
sure I'm being quite precise.
I then do any kind of highlight shade because usually
it's like a cream or it's a different texture.
Then I go into my concealer.
Oh, I did some eyeshadow on my lid.
Under my eyes first, color corrector goes before this
if you're going to use it.
And I like to do my concealer now, because I like
to use that as a base for the shadow underneath.
Under our eyes is drier then the lid.
So it's fine to use a concealer there, of course.
And I also like to use a concealer to
cut off my eyeshadow shape if I'm doing more
of a winged kind of look as well.
You'll see, I do it now.
And it just gives me a little bit more structure to the
eyeshadow and then a little bit more guidance when
I'm doing underneath my eyes as well.
Optional if you go for a lighter concealer, if
you really like to highlight, then do that now.
I personally just press it into
the areas where I'm applying it.
I don't take it the whole way across because
that's where I like the highlights to be.
So that's all I do.
What am I looking for?
What was I checking it? I don't even know.
By the way, I have a bit of
a fake tan issue with my beard.
So if you see those lines, apologies.
Now it's time for under the eyes with our eyeshadow.
Being very gentle, you notice I'm leaning slightly forward,
and that's in case any eyeshadow that falls is
going to fall forward and not on my face.
So as gentle as we can be, it's a lot less to
tidy up if we've just done concealer, because then we can just
kind of wipe it away and add the concealer back on top.
And I... I don't think I show it in this, but
I do take another clean brush and I will gently
buff out that eyeshadow underneath to make it really fluffy.
Then I randomly decided to add some blue in here.
I don't know why.
Foundation. We're going to do foundation next.
I usually start with the center of the face and buff
out, but today I just wanted to get the coverage on.
So I'm still starting from the middle of wherever
and then taking it outwards towards the ear.
And I always start with the bottom half of
the face and then go into my forehead.
Usually I don't have any product on my forehead.
I will go on with my brush first and
see how much I have left on my brush.
If you have any blemishes, I forgot to add this in.
Concealer will go on now on top of those blemishes.
Okay. Controversial.
I like to start with bronzer first.
So we're going to do our cheeks.
I like to start with bronzer because to
me, bronzer kind of halos contour.
And I want the contour to be like quite a strong color.
And I'm using two creams so they
don't tend to outdo each other.
Like the contour shade doesn't
really change with the bronzer.
However, this isn't my usual contour shade.
I couldn't find it, but I just wanted to show you.
So then I do the contour where I feel I
need more structure because bronzer still adds a bit of structure.
But I wanted to add the contour where I
feel I needed more depth and a little bit
more emphasis on that structure, if that makes sense.
Blush.
Blush is going to go just above my bronzer, not touching
my contour, or just on the high points of my bronzer.
And if you want to, onto the apples of the cheek,
totally up to you how you're doing it that day.
However you're feeling, whatever face
shape you're feeling that day.
And then blush is going to be followed
up with highlighter, whether that's powder, liquid, cream,
whatever it is you want to do.
Yeah, I don't think... I was going to say some people
do something different, but I don't know if they do.
I prefer to do it this way just so
I can control the highlighter and kind of let
the highlighter sit and let our skin, if you're
oily, you know it will get oily anyway.
So then I can kind of see how
the highlight and the shine looks together.
Mascara is next.
Being careful.
We're not touching any parts of
our face with the mascara.
Now, if you're just done, if you're not
doing false lashes, I would powder and then
do mascara and then you're good to go.
But because we're doing false lashes, I
want to put mascara on first.
Add the lashes so I can
pinch them together with the mascara.
I had to change the font color because you couldn't
read it anymore because it was getting so much smaller.
Yeah.
And I've also done liner pencil in the waterline.
You can do this at whatever stage you like.
Lip products.
Lip balm could have gone on
with skincare if you wanted to.
So lipstick, lip gloss.
It doesn't matter where you do liner,
if you do it before or after.
Before to stop it bleeding and add structure and after to
tidy up is always a good way to do it.
Powder. So I'm only doing this where I am oily.
So I take it down the sides of the
nose and then I touch a tiny bit...
Can you see how I'm twisting the
thing so it doesn't touch the highlight?
I'm just using the edge to
get right underneath my undereye.
I do blend in that powder on the left
side of my face in just a moment with a brush
so it doesn't look like that.
And then I'm just blotting any areas that
are slightly shiny and then we're done. That's it.
That is my order of how I apply makeup.
To whoever, to myself, to anyone.
Thank you so much. Give this video thumbs up and subscribe.
See you soon. Bye.
